ATHENS, 14 April, 2021 (TON); Marking the maritime zones in the Mediterranean, Greece and Libya have agreed to hold talks, Prime Minister Mitsotakis said on Wednesday.

The PM remarked after a meeting with the president of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mohamed al-Menfi.

“The two leaders agreed on the immediate resumption of talks between Greece and Libya on the delimitation of the maritime zones,” said Mitsotakis in a statement after the meeting.

However, the ties between the two were soured by the Tripoli government signing a 2019 maritime boundary agreement with Greece’s Mediterranean rival Turkey, therefore, it seems that Greece aimed to reset relations with Libya.
